I've gotten my 2 CR10's dialed in pretty well in that regard, the Corel tape seems to be working relaibly for me now. The only thing I would improve would be to maybe get a flatter sheet of glass...

Conversely, when printing TPU on my Anet I have to run a generous nozzle clearance for the first layer otherwise I can't peel the finished tyre off of the bed!

Last few parts for the Ben Hur coming off the printer now. I'll try to find time at the weekend to finish the M8, but I suspect a lot of the fine detail is going to be too small to print sucessfully.

Whatever happened with this trailer project? I could really use one of the M-8's and would love a Ben Hur 1 ton too!

I can understand that. I was also curious as I had seen this Topic pop up and it didn't have any new posting on it before mine.
